FRIDAY JUNE 6, 1884.
Sad end of a
booming Arthur,
reformer : Bristow
An undertaker should never be seen
with a quack doctor.
Will the failure of Sabm a ear com
pany rob the Republicans of their gol
den chariet?
Bob Ingeraoll can afford to be a Re
publican. He does not believe in hell.
The Virginia0)alitienisU now oH
themselves the Republican party of that
State. J
Suppose General Grant, after getting
his salary on the retired list, should
speculate with it, what next would we
have to do for him?
The colored people say that it is the
white Republicans who have drawn the
color line.
Reduced taxation would rapidiy lead
to an increased expansion of all our in
dustrial interests.
Ex-Gv. Walker of New York, for
formerly of West Virginia, is strongly
in favor of Cleveland and McDonald
for the ticket.
The Democrats mean to reform gov
ernmental abuses. The Republicans
premise to, but will net do it. That is
lhe difference.
Government whiskey gaugers ran the
Kentucky republican convention. If
they measured the whiskey in the stom
achs of the delegates, they must hare
had a busy time of it.
The Kentucky democrats made up
their platform largely from Mr. Ti! Jen's
plendid structure of 1876. They could
have found no better model.
Mr. Tilden is the only Presidential
quantity who is able to lift himself eith
er on or off the ticket. He has every
thing his ewn way.
No rate ot tariff, high or low, and no
condition of trade, free or fettered, has
anything to do in fixing the wages of
laboring men. That is a matter of bar
gain between employers and employes,
regulated by supply and demand pre
cisely as the price of wheat or turnips
is regulated.
Mr. Tilden has but to say the word
and he will be nominated by acclama
tion. Under such circumstances, there
ought to be no occassien for any doubt
as to the course be will pursue, and it
is the imperative duty of Mr. Tilden to
furnish that knowledge at the earliest
practicable moment.
asHB4
Turn to whatever quarter of the dem
ocratic heavens you will, and you catch
the unmistakable glimmer of Tilden
heat lightning. The magnetism of Blaine
is paralleled by the electricity of Tilden,
But the most striking parallelism of all
is to be found in the fact that neither of
tbem is a candidate.
The Boston Post declares that Massa
chusetts will stand by the old ticket, as
against either Arthur or Blaine. It
prefers an honest and economical admin
istration of the Government to extrava
gance and corruption. Hence its Dem
ocratic proclivities.
Dr. York,the republican nominee for
governor of North Carolina is a medel
politician. He rode a mule all over
his congressional district two years ago,
and posed as the poor man's friend. He
told them in a speech in Ashe county,
that if it were not for a protective tariff
mules would be brought into that region
and sold at $15 per head. In the low
er counties he told "the poor laboring
people' that but for a protective tariff this
country would be flooded with foreign
cotton and the price of this staple here
would be run down below the cost of
protection.
m m m
Why this panic? Has the tariff been
reduced one cent recently? Wasn't it
only the other day that the Protection
ists Won a famous victory in Congress
and saved the "business interests" from
the demnition bow-wows? And now
is this the way the business interests
show their gratitude? Indeed, they
couldn't have behaved much worse if
they had been deprived of every dollar
of subsidy which they enjoy through the
tariff.
The oldest of the presidential candi
dates in either party is Payne o
Ohio, who is 74. The youngest, Lin
coln excepted, is Cleveland, who is enly
47, and Flower comes next with 49.
Senator Logan is about 55, Edmunds
56, Hawley 58, Allison 55, Harrison
and Gresham each 51, Arthur 54,Thur
man 71, McDonald 65, Hendricks 60,
Bayard 56, and Randall 55. Mr.
Blaine, who, is not a candidate, is
54. Mr. Tildea, who, also is net a can
didate, is a little over 70. Mr. Tilden
was born Feb. 14, 1814.
Tha man who will present the name
of Samuel J. Randall tofche national
democratic convention as a candidate
for the presidency will possess monu
mental cheek. Benjamin Franklin But
ler will have a better standing in that
convention than will the great parlia
mentarian who deliberately betrayed
his party into the h ands of the monop
olists who control the republican party.
As between Randall and Butler, we
should hardly know which to chooae,
but ia the name of all that is good and
true, give ua neither!
The Election.
iti, - -
The Democracy of Linn
Still True to their Col
ors. The Whole Coun
ty Ticket Elected
Except Clerk. f
Onco more the Democrats of Linn
have gained a brilliant victory. John
Myers lead off with the handsome
majority of 37. We are specially
proud of this as wh made special ap
peals to farmers and laboring men to
stand In with their true friend, nnd
this majority shows that these appeals
were not made iu vain. While the
people in the state have seen tit to
elect Mr. Hermann we feel sure that
before his term of ofllce has oxpired
our predictions with reference to his
course iu congress will be fully veri
fied. Governor Thayer bus 294 majority
over Judge Flinn.
Mr. Weatherford lays his opponent
in the shade to the tune ef i IS ma
jority. The people have done well
in this, but we must confess our sur
prise that there should be so many
voters in Linn county who would
vote for a man who could not satisfy
the public as to which side he took
on any issues ot the day. In another
column will be found fuller returns.
The oftkia majority on the legisla
tive ticket is about 275, which places
the party on a stronger basis than it
has beeo fur many years. Good for
old Linn.
rstim.
It will be remembered that during
the late campaign special war was
made on Mr. Black, one of the Dem
ocratic nominees for the legislature.
To show that this was unjust we have
only to refer to the vote at Halsey
where Mr. Black lives. Tho legis
lative ticket received 96 votes, and
Mr. Black received 116. Mr. lilack,
as we personally know, is popular
among his own people, at.. I wo are
sure the people will have no cease to
regret his election.
The Halsey Bemcxrats covered
themselves all over with glory at the
election last Monday. The? increas
ed their vote from 7" cat two years
ago to 92 this year, and reduced the
Republican majority from G'5 to 13.
Such sturdy Democrats as Black, Por
ter, Miller and others took off their
coats and worked like tigers and their
good work produced good results.
The legislature will be Republican
by about from 9 to 13. Republicans
now say this will send (ieorge to the
IT. S. Senate in place of Slater.
What a commentary ou elections
when so faithful a servant of tho peo
ple should be displaced by a tool of
corporations.
It is a matter n" regret among
Democrats that Mr. Galbraith was
defeated for County Clerk. Ho is a
worthy man and would have made
an excellent clerk, but he was the
victim of a combination of circum
stances over which he and bis friends
bad no centrol.
That certificate business failed to
beat Charlton for sheriff. The thiag
was completely overdone. The sober
second thought will lead a person to
conclude that the deliberate judg
ment of a convention is safer goner
ally than the opinion of a single par
son. George E. Chamberlain, D-un jcra
tic candidate for Prosecuting Attor
ney, beats his competitor from .'JO
to 400. This is a victory that George
may well be proud of in view of the
fact that the district has a Republi
can majority of 700.
The National Republican Conven
tion met last Tuesday and organized
by the election of John R. Lynch,
colored, as temporary chairman. The
committee is having trouble over tho
tariff plank.
Uncle "Jim" Charlton carried Hal.
sey precinct by 21 majority, but the
precinct went Republican by 45.
There are some "powerful good" men
among our Republican friends at that
place.
The. man who stuffed a handful of
ballots into the hat at the New
Hampshire Republican Convention
afterwards found the resolution cal
ling for a free ballot and a fair count.
Al Johnson ran like a grey hound
for sheriff in the"Forks," but "Uncle
Jimmy" distanced him In the body
of the county.
Several Presidential booms have
been exposed to the weather so loug
as to be unfit for further use.
One of the curiosities of Pennsyl
vania is the Beading Neto, a red- hot
Democratic tariff reform p iper.
HMtiemff.
Protection is unnatural and artificial,
and with this false doctrine for our
business basil we shall be liable at all
time to disaster and ruin. After 25
years of so called protection we can look
about us to-day and see its fruits. Fi
nancial disasters on every band, and,
notwithstanding the boasting that the
laborer is benefited, why is it that re
duction in the price of labor is the
watch ward of corporations and manu
facturing establishments throughout the
length and breadth ef the land ? Fail
ure after failure, and strike after strike
among laboring men,are things of daily
occurrence, and all this under the in
fluence of protection. We have but to
open our eyes to see the practical re
sults of this doctrine and discover the
shun and hypocricy which enters into
it and surrounds it. The country has
never prospered through this artificial
means or as a result of this doctrine.
Our resources ss a people are so great
and diversified that a good measure of
prosperity, in the yeais gone by, haa
come to us, in spito of protection. Our
Republican friend tell us that by this
means we protect American labor. This
proposition I deny ; hut even if labor
is protected, if the price ot labor is in
oraatad by laying a tux upon imported
articles, would it not be profitable to
know who it is that pays this tax in
the end Ms it not the consumers those
who purchase and pay for the article
which in thus imported, and upon which
the tax is laid ? Of the 50,000,000 ef
people in the country, a very Urge pro
portion belong to the middle or laboting
classes, and the wealth of the ceuntry
is mostly iu the possession of the few,
when compared with the other class.
It follows then as a logical and inevita
ble conclusion, that tlm tax must be
paid very largely from the results of
laber, lecause the laboring man con
sumes s.h much as the rich man of the
necessities of life, and more. Conse
quently the wealth of the country
escapes, and thus it can be seen that
the burden is unequally borne and that
labor pays tribute to the Caesars of the
nineteenth century.
Let every laWiinj man ask himself,
to-day, this question : What is the
purchasing powaf f my labor as com
pare! with what it world be if this
tariff was taken off the common neces
saries of life.which 1 mint have in order
to sup(iort myself an1 f-truilr t Tbis is
the true test, not necessarily the amount
the laborer receives, bet bow much be
can but with it. How many of the
comforts of life can he get out of his
earnings ? How does be stand after bis
bills are paid I
Take alt the manufacturing industries
in 1890, as rej orted ro the census, and
we find that the bands employed num
bered 906,900, and the total wages paid
"ere 1296,749,898, or $J4 1 53 in gold
or its equivalent to each hand. In 1660
there were 1,.1 1,246 hands employed,
and the wages paid were $378,76,966
or f 287 in gold or its equivalent to each
hand, while in ls7' the bands employed
were 2,053,996, end the ages paid
amounted to 779,984,345 in currency,
being an average of $398 12 to each
haad, but the currency was worth, ac
cording to tb rejx.ru from the ofllce of
the se-retary of the treasury, only A3. 6
ccotH to the d!!r, so that the $358.12
ia currency was equal to $306.55 only
in gold. It appears from lhee figures
that the increase of the annual wages
ef each hand in g ld was 18 r cent,
from 1850 to 1860, during what is
sometimes denominated the free trade
era, while from 1860 to 1870,the period
of the highest protection we have ever
had iu this country, the increase was a
little !eai than 7 per cent.
IS it not true then that the chasm
between the laborer and the employer
is wider am! dee er than it was 25
years ago ? They ought to be nearer
together and more in harmony. Can it
be successfully denied that this is the
result of unwise legislation in regard to
taxation. Does labor get its fair and
jast division of the profits.
Tho purchasing power ef labor is not
what it would b i if these restrictions
wore banished. Our millionaires are
steadily increasing in number, and cor
porate capital is adding millions to
millions ; and tb s is dene without ren
dering a just equivalent. We need but
look about us to behold the tendency of
the time?. It is an unnatural condi
tion of things, which makes it possible
for the few, by speculation and without
rendering an equivalent, to pile up their
millions in a day or an hour, little
caring about the source whence it
comes. It would be well for these
speculators to understand at least one
elementary principle of political econo
my, viz. : that all wealth is produced
by labor.
I rejoice that the time has come when
the people of tbis country are giving
this subject a thorough confederation,
and are not being controlled by blind
prejudices or mere party success.
There can be hut one conclusion, after
a careful investigation, and that is
against the doctrine ot protection, for
the sake of protection. Such is the
candid judgment of those who have
made it a study in an impartial manner
and who have no selfish purpose to
subserve. Even the Republicans in the
Massachusetts convention say "there is
a necessity for an investigation of the
tariff upon a scientific basis, to the end
that it may he considered as to its real
influence upon labor,capital, production,
aad revenue."
How does this sentiment comport
with their recent action in congress,
wherein they reuso to do anything In
this direction and vote against any snd
all measures of relief 1
Is net tha conclusion irresistable, and
their purpoaa unmistakable, that they
intend te ke.ip this burden upon the
people for years to oomo in order that
their own selfishness may be still futther
satisfied 1
This is the great issue for tha Ameri
can people to meet in the coming con
test, and we ought to approach it with
out fear.
No one now desires or tx poets abso
lute free trade, for that is impossible,
so long as a large r oven no is demanded
to defray the expenses of government.
Nor does any one desire any such sud
den or radical changes as will injurious
ly sffeot existing industries ; but wa do
demand that something shall be dene
to relieve the people of this ceuntry
from unjust and unequal taxation. Our
people have heard enough of our iaabil
ily to compete with others in the great
leading industries of the world. A
country like ours, rich in every natural
way, climate, productions snd the in
telligence ot tier oopIe, with genius
and all modern improvements, backed
by energy, can oemjiete with the world,
and whoever donies it makes a coward
ly admission which is not true. The
policy of protection is dictated by sel
fishness and avarice, and the highest
dictates of reason and patriotism de
mand its abolition. Whoever rtands
in the way of this much needed reform
will go down under the wave of an ad
vancing publio opinitc.

The JJisssminator, published ot Har-
risburg , professes to bo independent and 1
non-partisan, but its course dining the
campaign just ctooed seems to indicate '
that it )as concluded to come out un
der IU true colors and identify itself
with the Republican party. Nobody,
of course, denies the right of its editor
to run a Republican newspaper. This
ia one of thooe inalienable rights grow"
ing out of magna charta wrung from an
unwillirg king, Jvbn, of Kngland.
Hut when a person publishes a paper
and leads people to beliove that it is an
independent paper and not partisan,
and peoplo are thus induced to act upon
that profession and subscribe for, and
patronUe such paper, tbore is an im
plied contract between proprietor and
patron that such paper shall be con
ducted as a non-partisan journal.
Newspaper men owe it to themselves,
tho profoaaicn, and the public, to act in
good faith. We are led to these reflec
tions by the course of the IhssenutuUsr
towards W. W. Thayer, tr.e Democratic
candidate for Supreme Judge. Under
date of May 24, it admitted to its col
umns a correspondence making a bitter,
malicious and slauderous attack upon
W. W Thayer. Under date ef May
31st it published a reply by some corre
spondent, who in a plain way, and
without mskiog any attack whatever
upon Mr. Flinn, refuted every slander
brought against W. W. Thayer. Now
this defense was dated ''Harrisburg,
May 27." lint in the same issue ef
May. U, it publishes a correspondence
from the same slanderer who made the
attack upon Qav. Thayer.wbich corre
spondence is dated "May 26," and
whose writer attempts to reply to the
defense of Thayer, dated May 27.
Kvery allegation in the defense of
Thayer made under date of "May 27"
was referred to in the reply that was
dated one day previous, that is "May
26." Now the questien naturally
arises, how did the writer of the artiolo
dated "May 26 " know how te answer
an article dated "May 27." We leave
our readers to conclude how this matter
assumed tbis shape, and we leave the
Disseminator to defend against and
answer the critioisras brought against it
by many of its readers.
An Bxeelleat Maculae.
Tho June Magazine oj American Histsry
opens with an exquisite steel portrait of
Washington from the original minia
ture painted by Mrs. Sharpies In 1790,
never before given to the public. The
leading illustrated article is oae of great
general interest, entitled "Dofenses ef
Narragaaset Bay, Rhode Island ;" It is
from the ready pen of Genera! George
W. Cullum, of the Corps ef Engineers,
U. B. A., and gives a complete history
of the fortifications about Newport,
with a dozen or more excellent maps.
The second article gives a breezy aud
timely account of the "Discovery of the
Yellowstone National Park," for which
every reader la the country will be
grateful to its author, Mr. P. Koch, of
Bozeman, Montana. Then follows a
pleasant chapter on the curious history
of the rare and beautiful Bharploss
miniature portrait of Washington, by
its fortunate owner and possessor, Mr.
Walton W. Evans, of New York. "The
Rise of a Mechanical Ideal," by Charles
H. Fitch, is an essay of exceptional
value and Interest on the early manu
facture of fire armsia the United States
and is Illustrated with several interest
fng portraits. Lieut.-General Charles
P. Stone, late Chief of the General Staff
of the Khedive of Egypt, contributes a
readable and delightfully informing
paper, entitled "A Dinner with General
Scott in 1861,'' showing tho situation ef
Washington at that time. The Private
Intelligence pap jrs of Sir Henry Clinton
are continued, under Mr Do Lancey's
able editorship ; two unpublished let
ters of Lafayette te William Constable,
of New York, are contributed by Mr.
Heary E. Pierrepout, of Brooklyn ; and
the five standing departments of notes,
